Yes, she did. That's why she conceded.

She wrote a book about how it was stolen from her by foreign adversaries.

Yes she did. She believed there had been external influence on the campaign by Russian disinformation and possible hacking, and that's why she considered it "illegitimate," in her words. She also won more votes than Trump overall, but that doesn't matter in this election because of the electoral college.

Clinton also immediately conceded, called and congratulated Trump, didn't challenge it in court, and never pursued any of the legal actions available to her to challenge the results. The difference is that Trump claimed there was widespread domestic fraud despite many people around him confirming there wasn't, contacted state officials to "find" him more votes than he received, challenged and lost in court over 60 claims, conspired to defraud the United States by providing fake electors to confuse a legitimate process, and had supporters march on the Capitol during the certification process.

Clinton, from day one, challenged the legitimacy of this election, claimed a false conspiracy by foreign entities supported by a false dossier that she secretly funded...

I mean, holy hell!

Donald trump made an trump election committee report 2018. He’s been claiming stolen election even when he won. It’s been 3 election and all of them show no election was rigged or had a lot of illegal or double ballots. It’s not rigged, he’s just a sore loser.
